METHODS OF APPLICATION
METHODS OF APPLICATION There are many ways to expose animals to essential oils. The pros and cons of each method, as well as the species they best match with will be described. You will hear me say often – use a “Species Specific” oil application. This refers to the fact that if you are researching a specific condition in humans, and find an oil that you may like to try for an animal, you will consider the type of animal in which you are applying the essential oil to, to determine the best application route.

DIFFUSION
FORMS OF DIFFUSION: There are several ways in which diffusion of essential oils into the air can occur. Mechanical diffusion utilizes a machine or propulsion of some sort to mobilize essential oil particles into the air. Passive diffusion is what I consider the evaporation of essential oils into the air on their own accord. Within the mechanical category, three main styles can be considered. One is what I will refer to as water-based diffusion, the other an air-style diffusion, and the third utilizes a spritzer bottle. I do not recommend any type of diffusion that involves heating or “burning”– as this can damage the essential oil. Passive diffusion can include the placement of essential oils onto cotton balls, tissues, cage papers, and even humans – allowing the oils to passively waft into the area around the animal.
WATER-BASED DIFFUSION: The Aria Ultrasonic Diffuser is an example of a water-based diffuser. Water is added to the machine along with varying drops of essential oil(s). The beauty of a water-based diffuser is the variable diffusion concentrations that can be achieved. The teeniest dip of a toothpick, one drop of essential oil, or even 20 drops of essential oil can be added to a batch of water in a diffuser; allowing the utmost control in levels of exposure. Although hardly necessary – one drop or less can be added to a diffuser.
28
METHODS OF APPLICATION - DIFFUSION
STARTING POINTS: For most water-based diffusers – 1 to 4 drops of essential oil(s) can be added to the machine when close contact with a diffuser and an animal is planned. This includes placing a diffuser close to a caged animal, tenting an animal with the diffuser vapor, and for animals that have not had much “mapping” in essential oil use or whom are considered fragile or exotic. In this category, I would include animals such as insects (honey bees, tarantulas), Chinchillas, Sugar Gliders, etc… Dilution of the essential oil(s) is accomplished by varying how much oil is added to the water within the diffuser. The need for dilution of essential oils with a carrier oil, is not necessary for water-based diffusion - and could actually be harmful to the diffuser. I always recommend smelling the diffuser vapor yourself prior to introducing it to an animal. I hadn’t considered 4 to 5 drops of Purification to be a very intense concentration, until I put my face directly in the vapor for a few minutes. As I was intending to place this vapor into a cage with a dog – I wanted to know how it felt. It was actually quite intense. When starting to diffuse for an animal – start with a light amount, start diffusing in an open area, and stay with the animal for the first five to ten minutes or more of the diffusion. If an individual animal can only tolerate 5 minutes of diffusion in an open room – they would likely not tolerate a tenting situation. In emergency situations, you may need to move towards more intense diffusion right away, but these situations are hopefully few and far between. Another method of water-based diffusion is to add essential oils into water contained in a glass spray bottle – also referred to as a water spritzer. This solution is shaken to disperse the essential oils within the water, and then sprayed into the air. This method is also incredibly flexible, as anywhere from a toothpick dip to 20 or more drops of essential oil(s) can be added to varying amounts of water – allowing for incredible flexibility in the concentration of essential oils that are put into the environment.

ANIMAL DESK REFERENCE
WATER DIFFUSION – OPEN ROOM: In this situation, water-based diffusion is used in an average household room with the animal. The animal may or may not be able to leave the room, but is generally over 5 feet away from the diffuser. This method is appropriate for all animals including birds, reptiles, exotic species, and cats.
WATER DIFFUSION – SMALL CLOSED ROOM: This situation may include using a water-based diffuser in a much smaller room, such as a bathroom, with an animal. This allows for greater exposure to the essential oil vapor.
WATER DIFFUSION – CAGING: With this method, I would be directing the diffuser vapors into a cage or kennel of an animal. Basically placing a diffuser in close proximity with an animal who otherwise cannot move away from the vapor.
WATER DIFFUSION – TENTING: This method is more intense and concentrated than directing diffusion vapor into an otherwise open cage. With tenting, I cover an animal’s enclosure to effectively trap the diffusion vapors around the animal, and ensure a higher level of inhalation and exposure. Placing plastic wrap, plastic sheeting, or towels over both the cage and diffuser, creates a situation where generally the animal will be enveloped in a misty cloud of essential oil vapors. This method must be monitored much more intensely.

METHODS OF APPLICATION - DIFFUSION
AIR-STYLE DIFFUSION: An example of an air-style diffuser would be the TheraPro Premium Diffuser. Diffusing into an open room would be the main method recommended for use around animals with air-style diffusers. Air diffusers eject pure “neat” essential oils into the air. The concentration of essential oil is thus much higher than water-based diffusers. This method of diffusion is best reserved for larger rooms, barns, stalls, chicken coops, etc… The more “sensitive” the animal may be to essential oils, the larger the room and the farther away an air diffuser should be placed and used. Only rarely would a tenting situation be used with an air-style diffuser. The closest to tenting would be enclosing a stall with solid walls or plastic over the doors and windows and diffusing for a horse or other large animal. This method can be particularly beneficial for Heaves and other respiratory concerns. Plastic “drop sheets” for painting can be hung over the entrance to a lean-to or run-in shelter and a horse can be held inside with a diffuser to administer essential oils in this manner.
MONITORING DURING DIFFUSION: Can diffusion cause detoxification and “discomfort”? Certainly. What might an animal show if they are not tolerating the level of diffusion you are exposing them to? Lethargy, increased breathing rate, panting, drooling, change in breathing pattern, squinting eyes, or any other change that you would consider to be “detrimental” or out of the ordinary. If an animal exhibits signs of distress during diffusion, simply turn off the diffuser and increase access to plain fresh air.

ESSENTIAL OIL SINGLES
Horses & Large Animals: Cinnamon oil is well indicated for large abscesses, applied neat or diluted, directly to the site. Cinnamon is a wonderful oil for hoof abscesses, and other conditions such as Canker, Thrush, warts, or other lesions which do best with a “burning” sort of action to eliminate them from the body. Cinnamon is often implicated in the balancing of blood sugars – and used diluted could be given (especially to horses) orally for this effect. However, since there are many other oils which also perform this action, their use may be better indicated.
Cistus (Cistus ladanifer) Cistus is also known as Labdanum, Rose of Sharon, or Rock Rose. Cistus is contained within the Twelve Oils of Ancient Scripture collection. The most common use for Cistus in the veterinary field is for conditions of blood clots and hemorrhage. Cistus is by far the leading oil indicated in conditions of internal hemorrhage (bleeding). This oil has been successfully used in many cases of internal hemorrhage and weeping after an Ovariohysterectomy or Spay surgery. Birds & Exotics: Cistus would likely only be used in emergency situations of hemorrhage or of blood clots. 1 drop of Cistus diluted in 2 mL of V-6, would be used for oral administration. 1 drop of the diluted solution would be given orally, and repeated every 20 minutes or more until internal bleeding was controlled. Cistus can be applied neat or diluted directly to a bleeding toe nail, or broken blood feather to help stop the bleeding. Water diffusion could also be utilized, especially in situations where lung penetration is desired. Cats: Cistus would commonly be used by adding it to a Kitty Raindrop Technique, applying via Petting (dilute or neat), added to Litteroma, or in emergency situations given orally. Depending on the severity of the bleeding, Cistus could be used orally either neat or diluted with an equal part of V-6. Whether diluted or neat, the Cistus would be given orally, one drop at a time, repeating every 20 minutes or more until the bleeding was controlled. Cistus would also be well indicated for situations of blood clots in cats, such as Saddle Thrombus. Water diffusion could also be used, especially in situations where lung penetration is desired. Dogs & Larger: Cistus can be used in many ways; air or water diffusion, insertion into a Raindrop Technique, direct topical application (neat or diluted), via Petting (neat or diluted), and orally. In situations of internal hemorrhage approximately 3 drops per 20 pounds (9kg) of dog is given 83
ESSENTIAL OIL BLENDS
Christmas Spirit – E, P Christmas Spirit contains Orange, Cinnamon Bark, and Spruce. Situations of use include cognitive dysfunction, depression, laziness, and the need for security (such as a pup leaving its family.) Medically, this oil has anticancer and antimicrobial properties.
Citrus Fresh - P Citrus Fresh contains Orange, Tangerine, Lemon, Mandarin, Grapefruit, and Spearmint Oil. It is well used externally and internally, and is very safe in all forms of species. It is especially indicated for general health and detoxification, immune support, to encourage drinking and adequate hydration (in drinking water), and for cancer situations. Citrus Fresh can generally be used in quite high quantities for ingestion, similar to the single oil recommendations for the various citrus oils. Photosensitivity is a concern with this oil blend.
Clarity - E Clarity contains Cardamom, Rosemary, Peppermint, Basil, Bergamot, Geranium, Jasmine, Lemon, Palmarosa, Roman Chamomile, Rosewood, and Ylang Ylang. Situations of use include creating a clear mind, amplifying mental alertness, and promoting vitality and energy – such as for showing, hunting, competition, obedience training, tracking, and working.
Common Sense - E Common Sense contains Frankincense, Ylang Ylang, Ocotea, Ruta, Dorado Azul, and Lime oil. Situations of use include anxiety, increasing brain function, seizures, brain damage, neurologic conditions, and to strengthen learning ability.

SUPPLEMENTS & PRODUCTS
can have light amounts of the massage oil applied via the Petting application when desired.
EndoGize EndoGize is indicated for use to balance the hormones and endocrine system in both females and males. It has not been used extensively in animals at this time, but may be helpful for dogs and horses in conditions such as Cushing’s Disease, hypothyroidism, false pregnancy, pyometra, Alopecia X, Metabolic Syndrome, urinary incontinence, prostate disease, vaginitis, cystic ovaries, obesity, and hormonal behavioral issues. Follow the suggestions outlined at the beginning of this chapter if you choose to use EndoGize for a particular case. It is likely that other species of animals can benefit from this product as well.
Essentialzyme Essentialzyme is a digestive enzyme that is particularly indicated for use with pancreatitis and pancreatic conditions. It is also particularly helpful in cancer cases, where this specific blend of enzymes appears especially helpful in breaking down and “digesting” the protective barriers created by cancers. It is generally not utilized in animals larger than dogs. Cats may or may not consume this enzyme within their food, due to the essential oil flavors it contains. For all animals, opening up a capsule, and starting with a tiny sprinkling of the enzyme mixed into soft moist foods is the suggested starting point. Gradually increase the amount given, until some is offered with each meal. In cases of cancer, quite high amounts of Essentialzyme have been used. Birds & Exotics: Approximately ¼ to ½ of a capsule may be consumed per day (split up between several meals.) More may be used in certain cases. Cats: Approximately ½ to 1 full capsule per day may be consumed. It is possible to increase to a full capsule per meal in some situations. Dogs: Approximately 1 capsule (or more) per meal may be consumed per 20 pounds (9 kg) of body weight. Start with smaller amounts, and gradually increase. Horses & Larger: Generally do not use this product.

AVIAN CONDITIONS
AVIAN CONDITIONS
ARTHRITIS (See also BUMBLEFOOT) Arthritis is a condition of inflammation of the joints. As birds are rarely radiographed or evaluated for arthritis in the traditional sense, one can assume that older birds, or birds with any form of discomfort, may fall into this category of having pain that affects their mobility. FIRST LINE RECOMMENDATIONS: WATER MISTING: With a solution of 10 drops of Frankincense and 5 drops of Copaiba in 4 ounces (120 mL) of distilled water. Shake well, and mist directly onto the bird, 1-2 times a day. INGESTION: Copaiba can be added to foods or drinking water. SUPPLEMENTS: NingXia Red, Sulfurzyme, BLM Capsules, Omega Blue. Single Oils: Balsam Fir (Idaho), Copaiba, Frankincense, Helichrysum, Lavender, Lemon, Marjoram, Myrrh, Nutmeg, Orange, Palo Santo, Peppermint, Pine, Spruce, Tansy (Blue), Vetiver, Wintergreen Blends: Aroma Siez, Avian Raindrop Technique, Believe, Feather Spray Recipe, Juva Cleanse, Juva Flex, M-Grain, Stress Away Roll-On, Valor Roll-On Supplements & Products: Animal Scents Ointment, BLM Capsules, JuvaTone, MightyZyme, Mineral Essence, NingXia Red, Ningxia Wolfberries, Omega Blue, Ortho Ease Massage Oil, Ortho Sport Massage Oil, Regenolone Moisturizing Cream, Sulfurzyme

FERRET CONDITIONS
FERRET – ADRENAL TUMORS Adrenal disease and tumors are far too common in Ferrets, and almost expected to occur in aged Ferrets. Resulting in hair loss as the most obvious symptom, Ferrets tend to live with this condition on a chronic basis. Household chemicals, food toxins, and preservatives are high on the list of contributing factors. Preventive measures should be followed from kit-hood, for the best scenario of health. FIRST LINE RECOMMENDATIONS: WATER DIFFUSION: Joy, Balsam Fir (Idaho), Frankincense PETTING: Joy, Frankincense daily INGESTION: Citrus Fresh, Orange, Tangerine, Frankincense TOPICAL: Ferret Raindrop Technique SUPPLEMENTS: NingXia Red Single Oils: Balsam Fir (Idaho), Frankincense, Helichrysum, Lemon, Orange, Palo Santo, Rosemary, Sandalwood, Tangerine Blends: Citrus Fresh, EndoFlex, GLF, ImmuPower, Juva Cleanse, Juva Flex, 3 Wise Men Supplements & Products: Essentialzyme, ImmuPro, MightyZyme, Mineral Essence, MultiGreens, NingXia Red, Omega Blue, PD 80/20, True Source
FERRET – DIARRHEA, HELICOBACTER PYLORI Ferrets can exhibit bloody diarrhea and illness with this bacterial condition of the gastrointestinal tract. Antibiotics are generally prescribed, and occasionally veterinary hospitalization is also required. Since there can be significant amounts of blood in the stools, both digested (melena) or fresh, use caution with Thieves and other oils with anticoagulant action. Small amounts of Thieves is very beneficial, however just needs a light touch and careful monitoring. Helichrysum is helpful for intestinal pains and bleeding.

CONSTIPATION Constipation is most commonly related to dehydration and improper food choices. Having a quality veterinary exam to look for issues that may contribute to this condition is important. Prostatic disease can often be confused for constipation. FIRST LINE RECOMMENDATIONS: Evaluate the dog’s diet. Consult with a holistic veterinarian or nutritionist. Add water to every meal, to increase hydration. SUPPLEMENTS: Add ComforTone or ICP to every meal. Start slowly, and gradually increase the amounts given. Monitor stools closely for positive changes in stool form. If stools become harder or dryer – discontinue the selected supplement and try a different supplement.
